Some thoughts on the consequences of educational technology for institutions & building organisational Architecture of Participation. Still being updated @Feb 22

1. Before & After Institutions
Building Architectures of Participation

2. Before & After Institutions
A timely intervention by nefg
So, can we build
organisational
architectures of
participation?

3. Before & After Institutions
Learning is changing;
Computer-mediated, internet-enabled,
web-based platforms
Pedagogically-flexible; negotiated,
discursive, brokered, co-created
From Access to Content to Context,
learning processes are changing. BUT!!
What about educational institutions?

4. Before & After Institutions
Teaching and Learning

5. Before & After Institutions
New technologies & new capacities
have enabled a shift from;
content scarcity to content abundance,
Enabled diverse navigation paths
Creating multiple possibilities for…
learner-centred & self-directed learning
What is self-directed learning?

6. Education needs a new Craft of Teaching

7. To Trust in Digital Curiosity

8. To enable “Artfully-crafted
Student-centred Learning Experiences”

9. So we can co-create a
A learning transformation

10. Our transformed models of learning
require new organisational structures

11. BUT! The Academy hasn’t changed;

12. Academic Institutions remain
•Elitist
•Self-regarding
•Hierarchical
•Sclerotic
•Expensive
Still preparing for 19th Century
colonial wars…

13. Instead of for 21st Century Citizens!

14. Filled with Education Managers
Inspecting delivery of traditional educational policy objectives

15. AND Learning Change Deniers

Institutions and Structures

17. Before & After Institutions
If we build organisational architectures of
participation – will they be;
E-enabling tradition or transforming
institutions of education?
Will it be a digital revolution in networked
participation or just managing in the
knowledge economy?

19. Trust in Collaboration

20. Outcomes Permanently Beta

21. NOT Permanently Victorian

22. E-mature institutions confident…
Enough to evolve and change
To collaborate, adapt, evolve and change

23. Adaptive institutions working across
Collaborative networks

24. Before & After Institutions
What are Architectures of Participation?

25. For us participatory education means
Participatory institutions

26. Formalised around quality assurance
And Learning support

27. Where both delivering & managing
learning programmes are the same

28. AND teachers are trusted
For their pedagogic experience

29. Co-creating authentic learning experiences
With enthusiastic learners

30. Before & After Institutions

Strategic actions create learning

Learning management designs &
evaluates new learning behaviours
Operational behaviour is created by
learners evolving new tech practices
